"Outstanding service during Garden State Film Festival"
Overall Score5.0/ 5
I was attending the Garden State Film Festival and actually arrived a day early and the gentleman at the front door offered to see if they had any rooms for Friday night. But the movie I wanted was on Saturday night. When I arrived on Saturday they remembered me and we laughed about my mistake. In all my years of staying at a hotel, I've never had my luggage taken to my room or my coat hung up for me, what a nice touch! Absolutely loved the octopus side tables in the hallways.
